15 Nov 2011 15:03:00 +00002011-11-15T07:22:47.793-08:00hoping to be playing gigs next year, so am busy now<b>Am on a mission to play some live gigs next summer so I dont mind entering competitions to play as a lot of festivals want paying, where you have to pay to play, I cant afford to do any of that, Still nothing is going to be putting me off making new music even though I dont seem to make a living out of it and when I do go to parties and festivals I rarely have to pay for anything so its all a bonus to me and I really dont mind playing by a camp fire, I just get annoyed with the people who expect me to let them play my guitar and they always break a string or give the guitar an] extra scratch so am already booking and planning next year and am also busy doing writing, it seems an impossible task at the moment to be making films , but maybe some big company will help me as people I seem to know would rather mock what I do than to help, here is a link for a festival I want to play at&nbsp;</b><br /><a href="http://www.supajam.com/hopfarm2012part1/entry/Paint-with-fire">http://www.supajam.com/hopfarm2012part1/entry/Paint-with-fire</a><br />would be good if people voted , even though I say myself that I am really a one man show who cant really rely on someone unless I chuck money at them which I will be able to be doing soon, I hope<br />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<b>we got the studio nearly there and am needing a decent recording microphone, I dont really want to be busking in the cold weather so will carry on doing live shows on stageit.com, to find out more about the shows, they will be advertised on facebook and reverbnation, I keep on telling people that there are going to be some amazing musicians coming to jam with me and am sure there will be , will have to lure them in somehow with money or something to that extent, I am also recording with what I got already and it sounds ok anyway......here are some links to my pages.........</b><br /><a

music now I am collaborating with different artists , Have got the soundcard working and am now on the mission to get a real decent condenser microphone , Have got some Microphones and they will have to do for now , but getting the best quality makes sense as I want reall proper good recordings , lots of people have lent me the equipment and i will make do with what I already have, time will tell how good my tunes will be, I reckon I will have top quality tunes very soon and am making the most of my god given time....watch this space</b><br /><a

10:46:00 +00002011-10-09T03:46:06.366-07:00Busy on a contact and Connect missionWell here is another weblog , Just listening in on The age of love again track by jam n spoon....or they just made the remix.....bring back all those memories of when we used to dance back in the late 80s to acid house and then came techno and massive outdoor raves and filled warehouses full of people scoffing disco biscuits and being as fluffy as you like with each other.....10,000 people and not one angry face.....no one even had mobile phones either....people would meet up in a gas station and there would be a mass of 1000 to 2000 cars driving round the m25 waiting for the word on the party.......and when the magic 0f the mobile phone appeared, massive events like the party at castlemorten would happen, 30 to 40 thousand or more....totally illegal....even B.B.C radio one was even broadcasting it.......well 1984 was a special year for me , getting out of school and going to college...not a great time to be leaving school, really as we never learnt anything about computers or internet, no mobile phones....or if you did have one you would be called a yuppie....used to take 2 people to carry one around and most of them were probably drug dealers , never got into that way of life &nbsp;I had been fortunate of leaving college and getting a job straight away instructing pottery at at a community centre for active retired people....they taught me, so I never had to learn pottery at university , I blagged a job because I was a natural at making pottery and had the gift of the gab of telling them how I knew to operate a kiln.....I t just a way to get my foot in the door , managed to do that for 2 years and then for me I went on the road as I had had enough of living in Basildon , Essex.....so I got a bus to somerset....The city of Wells was the first place as my mum was living on a site with travelers , the media was calling them the peace convoy....or the medievil brigands, glad I went on the road then as it just the start of the parties happening....one part of thatchers britain were making shit loads of cash in the stock market, quite a few peopie I knew from school in Essex was cashing in big on it all.....while the other side of britain was experiencing a music revolution dancing the night away....or even going for it 3 days in a trot fueled on chemicals and drinking water....must of been just how the kids in the 1960 s would have felt like on the flower power and the L.s.d.....non violence was what it was all about....films like Rise of the footsoldier explained what it was like back in the days....of football violence and then it went into the days of everybody partying together{ I knew some of the characters in the film from Basildon.......mad town to be born in everybody from the east end of london and other places all jostling for power on the underground scene, our school fights back then werent queensbury rules fights or even bare knuckle boxing matches either , they were like battle zones , my MUm went on the road to escape the violence and the world of the police knocking at the door and on occassion kicking the door off its hings..... we have come to pick up the James gang mrs James the old bill would say....anyways enough of that and on with the story....my mum went to a place called Molesworth to live with a load of mad drug crazed hippies which at first kind of freaked me out , all sort of C.n.d types, and then they had a festival and people called the convoy turned up and made things more interesting by being more than just hippies there was old pinks , skinheads , graduates, posh people , anti nuclear types like woman from Greenham common all living together and all getting evicted together and being told to leave by 1600 royal engingeers, armed police, how many I dont know to be precised , riot police and ministry of defence police all there, the convoy then moved being pushed from county to county being refused food , water and everything elses, people just then went and helped themselves, sometimes everything would get taken..........it sounds like something from a movie.....I am going to stop it there for now as there is so much I have left out, and you are wondering what I am getting at...............WILL UPDATE THIS AND PROBABLY DELETE IT ANYWAY

have had quite a few setbacks in life and getting to do the music I want has been difficult, I have managed to get myself some new music kit together and am jamming more as I have a loopstation pedal, I did allways want to be in a live band, but you cant allways get what you want, making reggae sounding music is where i want to be, ska, reggae, dub and dubstep , quite a lot of people have said that they want to collaborate, but it has been easier to set things up for me first and then hopefully when I have a great sound happening then everyone else will want to join in, am going to keep this blog well short as not to bore the hell out of anyone who reads it , thats as if someone will as I know that these days people want everything for free and its if they expect you to give them everything for free and then they still have to complain about it...like they have paid for it, got back on it now that I have internet connection, Being homeless for a while made it extremely difficult to acheive anything.....now I am ready to record and jam new music , as all the old music has gone stale..please check out some of our web pages
